Home range analysis by GPS-Argos satellite transmitter Location data by GPS Data transfer by Argos system (c) is a home range calculated from the measurement result by the Argos system based on the fixed kernel method. (d) is a home range calculated from the measurement result by the GPS. Based on the GPS-Argos transmitter results, the home range is almost entirely confined to the breeding pond. According to the Argos system results, the home range extends to the surrounding area of the island beyond the breeding pond. 25/33 Cited from: T. Yasuda, N.

Behavior analysis of green turtles using micro data loggers A green turtle landing for nesting on the beach of Huyong Island in the Andaman sea, Thailand The turtle was attached a data logger recording the depth every second to determine the difference in the dive behavior between rainy and dry seasons Photo by Dr. Yasuda 27/33 Copyright (C) 2010 Field Informatics Research Group.

Time series data of depth where the turtle stayed Turtle 1 and 3 rested at the depth of 0 ~ 40m and 0~90m, respectively. The stay depth tended to become deep while shifting from the dry to rainy season. In the sea around the Similan Islands, the oceanographic conditions often deteriorate by monsoons in the rainy season. The deterioration of this oceanographic condition may have changed depth where the green turtle stayed.

A study on homing behavior of rockfish using ultrasonic biotelemetry Kansai International Airport, Japan opened in 1994 as a real seadrome that took into consideration the maintenance of the environment. The surrounding ocean area of the Kansai Airport is assumed to function as the nursery for the marine creatures because of the prohibition by the Osaka Pref. fishery adjustment rules of any collection of the fishery resources. However, how such fishes utilized this area was uncertain. 29/33 Copyright (C) 2010 Field Informatics Research Group. Kyoto University. All Rights Reserved.

Study area of the tracking experiment on the rockfish The ultrasonic transmitters were inserted in the rockfish collected in A, B, and C points. Then, the rockfish were released at points R1 and R2 and were tracked by ultrasonic telemetry. Homing rate Point A: 100 % (3 of 3 fish) Point B: 60 % (6 of 10 fish) Point C: 67 % (8 of 12 fish) The telemetry study provided the finding that the rockfish returned back to their habitat when the transportation and release was performed.
